The Museum of Contemporary Glass Art is in the Odunpazarı district of Eskişehir. It was founded in 2007 by the Metropolitan Municipality together with Anadolu University and the Friends of Glass group, and the Ministry of Culture and Tourism calls it the first glass museum in Türkiye.
The collection shows work by fifty-eight Turkish and ten foreign artists — that is, what happens when the transparency of glass is put to the service of art.
